When you set goals for yourself, and want to take a new path, tell no one about your plans. For one thing, negative people will drown out your enthusiasm. For another, telling people about what you want to do drains the energy needed to manifest your desires. When you keep it to yourself, energy begins to build and eventually must show up in your outer world. The one exception is if you want to tell one or two people who will completely support you. In that case, the energy increases because you have other people pulling for you.
